I am a new and green Ubuntu laptop owner in the GTA, and am wondering if you could recommend a b/w laser printer (preferably USB-wired) that would work smoothly with Ubuntu. As I discovered, my Lexmark E232 (that works beautifully with my Macs) is not (at all) Ubuntu-liked...
The Free Software Foundation's H-Node has a database of compatible hardware (not sure how up-to-date it is with current models): https://h-node.org/printers/catalogue/en The Linux Foundation has a printer listing database too: https://www.openprinting.org/printers/ ThinkPenguin sells a few as well (though they only ship to the US): https://www.thinkpenguin.com/catalog/printer-all-one-gnulinux I usually see what's available in store, and then cross-reference with those databases. Though after some frustration with my last purchase (HP LaserJet P1005), I might go in the reverse direction next time and pick a fully compatible (and non-tracking) printer from h-node and then see if I can buy it online...
